5.0 out of 5 stars More than Just an American Hero Story.
As someone who lost a friend to an IED, leaving behind a wife and 3 kids, this film is a mixture of emotions. There were many Heroes in this war, most of whom no one will ever know of. Above all other things in this movie is the darkness and tragedy of war - that follows everyone involved. People have within so much potential for goodness, courage, patriotism, selflessness and sacrifice. Yet, so often humanity abandons those things for that which is vile and evil. This movie shows the pain that impacts everyone war touches. Kyle found his way back to the light, but the darkness in others still sought to destroy. Powerful movie, of many heroes, and many villains, some deep within.
5.0 out of 5 stars Bases Upon A True Hero's Service to America
What a great movie. Not WWII, Korea or Vietnam but the more recent smaller conflicts happening. The story of a man who just wanted to do his best in serving his country and protecting his fellow comrades. Lots of action mixed with the emotional needs of his family lend a true feeling to this story. A sniper is a unique person in many ways and this story tells of one of the best ever. Once you watch this movie you will always have a different view of our men in uniform.

4.0 out of 5 stars A complex, layered tale by Eastwood--the closest he's come to Melville's "Moby Dick"
After the first ten minutes of “American Sniper” I could think about nothing but “Moby Dick,” Melville’s great American novel about one man’s consuming obsession that is at once an expression of American Puritanism and of the individualism and industry of those who exhibit a heroic nature that defies the confines of serving a landlocked, limiting community in favor of “living the dream” of the liberated, adventurous, new-world self. At the beginning of Melville's epic, quintessentially American, novel, we hear a sermon that will frame the story and identify its central protagonist by seeming to condemn to everlasting damnation those who would follow such a course.“American Sniper” offers in place of the stirring rhetoric and evangelical fervor of Melville’s fire-and-brimstone preacher—whose message shaming the rising tides of the Godless-flesh seems betrayed by the passion of its expression—a humble meditation delivered in a small country church by a pastor-shepherd who speaks conversationally and tentatively about the mystery of God’s infinite wisdom and the need for intellectual humility on the part of those who comprise His flock and wait upon His Grace. Though there’s no comparison with the imaginative eloquence and resonating power of the Puritan preacher’s sermon that helps explain and shape Ahab's journey, the pastoral offering of the country preacher serves a similar function in helping us undrstand Chris Kyle’s singular and single-minded attraction to Iraq.The message of the film's minister is lost on Mr. Kyle, Sr. and on his bored and noticeably restless son, Chris.. In its place, the head of the Kyle household drills into his two quaking sons a dogmatic, absolutist text of his own, based upon his reductive tripartite division of humanity into three types: sheep, wolves, and wolf-dogs. It should be noted that Kyle Sr. makes no mention of the Savior of humanity in Christian literature and theology, who is characterized in the New Testament not as a “wolf dog” but as the “good Shepherd,” and whose guidance becomes vital to the salvation of his flock, which consists of all human beings in creation, since all are equal in the eyes of God the Father. Such a mild message of peace is lost on Mr. Kyle, who stresses the importance of not merely “righting” every personal wrong but of “finishing off” the wolf who brought injury upon you, your family and friends. Throughout "American Sniper" we will witness the indelible effect of the father's message upon the son, who imagines he will not be fully worthy of his father's blessings until he has "finished off" the last obstructive wolf dog.By Chris’ 2nd and 3rd tours of Iraq, it’s clear that his wife, his own brother, and even some of his former comrades have become disillusioned by a heartless and pointless war. Chris Kyle’s “kill count” and the recreation it affords his buddies, who at least can take pleasure in bragging about their company’s sharpshooting celebrity, is what gives Kyle’s buddies some light moments in an otherwise hopeless, purposeless war. And when Kyle’s best friend is shot, the assignation of America's best kill-shot to a rival sharpshooter with Olympian skills (and a suitably picturesque nick-name: “The Butcher”) sets up the final confrontation as certainly as Ahab’s last run at the Great White. Kyle’s buddies have by now begun to make a game of who deserves the most credit as Chris' biggest PR agent in Iraq, But it's never a game for Chris, who is now set up to finish off “The Butcher”—or be finished off himself. This personal vendetta consumes him at the expense of everything else.When Kyle delivers the 2-mile kill shot (does any one check to verify that it hits its mark?), he gives away his regiment’s location, attracting much unfriendly fire. But at this moment of personal validation, he's acts as though he's invulnerable to the exploding armaments all around him (reminding me of Robert Duvall's surfing American officer in Coppola's "Apocalypse Now") and calls his wife, shouting that he's coming home. The quest had apparently become so personal that, by the time Chris "finishes off" the "Butcher," the mission is complete without the dispatching of any more wolf dogs.Throughout the film we see the indelible effect of the father’s message on the son, and the viewer is left to wonder if the end of the film is a conventional hero’s welcome or a problematic tribute admitting some criticism of a soldier who not only took his heroism too seriously but did so at the expense of the sheep whose internal injuries could represent no less a threat to him than the Iraqi opposition. And how important is his “showdown” with “The Butcher” if it leads to prideful defiance of death and abandonment of the soldiers who still count on his protection? (Ironically, in a conversation with the psychiatrist at the vets' hospital he insists that he suffers only from a regret that he didn't protect more of his men.) At best, the hero's “homecoming” invites different interpretations, even apart from the death that awaits him on a shooting range.The film may indeed be patriotic and sincere in its admiration of its protagonist, but it’s also more layered and complex than many viewers appear willing to allow. A study of Eastwood’s other films, which frequently deal with the search for an authentic male identity, would provide a clearer view. But better yet, read Melville's "Moby Dick."
